AMAZING. DAY.

I'm gonna post an IM with Iris with all the details.

SnowFairyTifa: Whoaaaaaaaaaaaa
Moon Rain 13: Hellooooooo!!
SnowFairyTifa: Today.
SnowFairyTifa: I saw Phantom..
SnowFairyTifa: TWICE.
Moon Rain 13: WHOO
SnowFairyTifa: Cause like.
SnowFairyTifa: It was just. whoa..
SnowFairyTifa: we saw it at 2pm.
Moon Rain 13: o.o
SnowFairyTifa: and then waited by the stage door.
SnowFairyTifa: but Raoul/John never came out.
SnowFairyTifa: we waited for over an hour
Moon Rain 13: o_o
SnowFairyTifa: so Tadas ripped out a page from the playbill, wrote him a note, and shoved it in the door XP wonder if he got it...but anyway
Moon Rain 13: XDDD
SnowFairyTifa: we then went for chinese food, and then I got the brilliant idea....LET'S GO SEE IT AGAIN!
Moon Rain 13: XD!!!
SnowFairyTifa: We had a decent amount of money on us...I had $45, and he had around $75 plus a $96 money order
SnowFairyTifa: so we stopped by the box office
Moon Rain 13: o_o
SnowFairyTifa: but they didnt have discount seats. so we ask what the best normal seats are, and she said front mezzanine
SnowFairyTifa: so we're like, okay. is there enough of them so we can run off and get the money to get them? and she's like yeah.
SnowFairyTifa: So. We then started our mission to cash the money order.
SnowFairyTifa: We were sent on a wild goosechase.
Moon Rain 13: Dun dun dun!
Moon Rain 13: o.o Go on.
SnowFairyTifa: 47th st, 43rd, 44th, 49th, 40th...
SnowFairyTifa: eventually we found a place that was 1) open and 2) would cash money orders.
SnowFairyTifa: then Tadas was going crazy trying to cash it since they insisted he had to have a government issued ID but he didnt have one so after pleading with the guy there for a while, we managed to get the money.
SnowFairyTifa: With like, 30 minutes to spare before the show.
SnowFairyTifa: we then dashed back to the theater, got tickets (row J, center orchestra XP), went to get a drink, then went into the theater. collapsed onto the sofa by the restrooms for a while then went to our seats.
SnowFairyTifa: and saw the show. again.
SnowFairyTifa: The second time, the guy playing Erik REMEMBERED THE EVIL LAUGH!
SnowFairyTifa: at the end of act I!
Moon Rain 13: ROTFLMAO
SnowFairyTifa: I was so happy.
Moon Rain 13: YAY!!
SnowFairyTifa: except he did it after the whole "GOOOOOOOO" part when he sends down the chandelier, but still. HE STILL DID IT. XP
SnowFairyTifa: and then he cracked a few times during one of his short songs, and for some reason I nearly burst into laughter. had to bite my lip to keep from laughing.
SnowFairyTifa: And I seriously started giggling at Raoul's whole "SO, IT IS TO BE WAR BETWEEN US! BUT THIS TIME, MY CLEVER FRIEND, THE DISASTER WILL BE YOURS!"
Moon Rain 13: *cracks up*
SnowFairyTifa: and then the show ended.
SnowFairyTifa: and we ran back to the stage door.
Moon Rain 13: o.o
SnowFairyTifa: and one of teh actresses who saw us before was like "o.o...You again?"
SnowFairyTifa: XD
Moon Rain 13: ROTFL
SnowFairyTifa: and we wait a little longer and then...YES! John (Raoul) comes out!!!
Moon Rain 13: YAAAAYYY!!
SnowFairyTifa: He sees me and Tadas and is all like "Nooooo XD!!" as in like, he can't believe we're there again
SnowFairyTifa: and he just walks up to Tadas and gives him a hug
SnowFairyTifa: Tadas didn't even have to ask this time
SnowFairyTifa: LOL
Moon Rain 13: XDDDD!!!
Moon Rain 13: AWWW!
SnowFairyTifa: and then I'm like "ME WANT HUG TOO" and I glomp him
Moon Rain 13: ROTFL
SnowFairyTifa: and then we started chatting with him
SnowFairyTifa: It turns out John is a HUGE Les Mis fan
Moon Rain 13: Oh how kickass
Moon Rain 13: KICKASS!!!
SnowFairyTifa: He said that it was because of Les Mis that he worked to become a professional actor
SnowFairyTifa: and I'm like "omg", I just wanted to kiss him then and there XP
Moon Rain 13: W00T!
Moon Rain 13: HAPPY DAY!
SnowFairyTifa: and then we got his autograph and a pic with him (may be a bit too dark, though)
SnowFairyTifa: and chatted with him a bit more and then said goodbye and skipped off.
Moon Rain 13: YAYYY!
SnowFairyTifa: He. is. so damn sweet.

I'll try to get the pic uploaded tomorrow ^__________^

Bwehehehehe...

o_O

Yeah.

So now Tadas and I are having an argument on whether Erik wears boxers or briefs.

Wait

Another funny thing that happened...

When we were running from 49th to 40th st...Tadas got really bored and screamed "ZEEKY BOOGY DOOG" at a random passerby.

That was amusing.

*thud*

Broadway on Broadway was so-so. Standing in the sun + black Phantom t-shirt = not fun. And the fact that I couldn't see the stage. Oh well. Monitors=good. They cut out Audrey's verse from Suddenly Seymour, for some reason o.O But Kerry and Hunter did a great job anyway. Um. Hugh Panaro pwned Music of the Night...it was just. wooooooow. We got attacked with a camera o.O I really, REALLY hope we don't get on TV. But yeah. It airs Tuesday night at 7pm, me thinks...forget what channel.

Tadas and I spent about two hours in Virgin Megastores. Most of that was me reading a book about Andrew Lloyd Webber and all his musicals (a crapload of info on POTO). Then we attacked the machine that allowed you to sample stuff from CDs, and laughed listening to the spanish version of POTO. And such. I got a ALW concert DVD thingy for $20. Need to stop wasting money.

Random note: If I could give yesterday a title, it would be: "For the Sake of the Fop".
